Meryl Streep slams Donald Trump in Golden Globes speech

Written by Teunis Felter

In an explosive six-minute speech on Sunday night, Streep went after Trump for mocking disabled New York Times reporter Serge Kovaleski during one of his rallies in November of 2015.  Some media outlets have since reported that Trump did not in fact mock the reporter. Trump responded to Streep’s comments on Monday by taking aim at the actress on Twitter, writing: ‘Meryl Streep, one of the most over-rated actresses in Hollywood, doesn’t know me but attacked last night at the Golden Globes.’ Streep, 67, is a three-time Academy Award winner who has been nominated for a record 19 Oscars and  a record 30 Golden Globes during a career that has spanned five decades. The actress is also widely considered to be the greatest-living actor by both members of the public and those in the industry.
